the real original native sons and daugh-

were unusually well dressed, and evidently
disposed to do honor to the occasion An
enterprising brewer had one of his large
wagons, loaded with beer, in the process
sion and the thirsty, no matter who, were
welcome TO drink. On ] street, between
Second and Third, during a slight halt,
parties or the sidewalk were invited to
sample the liquid, and one of the men in
the wagon held out two foaming glasses
invitingly. An old buck of the native sons
proved equal to the occasion. Stepping
forward he quickly grasped glass in each
hand, and, throwing his head back, poured
the contents OF one glass down his neck as
he would throw it into bucket then, not
so fearful OF being interrupted, he leisurely
disposed OF the beer in th other, and, re-
turning the glasses, walked away, rubbing
his stomach as he grinued in acknowledge
ment OF the shouts of the crowd about him.
